8. You’ll notice that it’s really hard to find an authentic Mexican restaurant, mostly, because you don’t know the place really well. 
9. You’ll notice that everyone thinks deep-dish pizza is the bomb, but maybe to you it's not. 
10. You’ll notice that every 7-Eleven has everything you need, including liquor!
